By- Shreya Sharma
Isn’t the idea of first vacation together quite interesting and thrilling? All those mixed feelings of adventure, romance, and independence flourish us and resound in our body and mind. The idea of spending your time together and with leisure is always special. You both will be together alone and new place with lots of new things to do. But out of this excitement, we should not forget a few things. Here are the things to remember on your first vacation together.
- Plan a destination, you are both interested in
There could be chances that you and your partner may not have interest in same things; which can lead to chaos. Plan a destination that is accessible, affordable and offers attractions that interests you both.
- Plan budget according to the lower income partner
Plan a budget and try to stick on to that. It is better that you plan the budget according to the partner with lower income so that it does not pressurize any one of you. This way you can avoid money related issues.
- Pack the necessities only
First of all, buy a sturdy backpack because you will be carrying that through-out the vacation. Then the second most important thing is to carry only the clothes, shoes and things that are necessary, remember you will be carrying your bag through-out. Do not pack 9-10 clothes or shoes for a 3 day trip.
- Be spontaneous
It is fun to be spontaneous, not everything should be planned, it will bring monotony to your trip. Plan things on hand, like going for a bike ride. Planning activities too will work but sometimes add a flavor of random-ness to it. Remember the scene in “Tamasha” where Ranbir and Deepika decides to be in the same restaurant but find some other person to feed them. Be cool that way.
- Learn to compromise
May be your choice of activities, food or any such thing may not match with one another but you will have to learn to compromise. Plan the activities in a way that both of yours wishes are fulfilled. Or you can compromise on a few things.
- Spend some alone time
Fine it is a trip together but spare some time for yourself as well. You may love to sleep and your partner may love to go for some activity, free one another, so that you can enjoy your sleep and he can go out for his activities. This way you both will get some time for your oneself.
- Make new friends
It will be one fun and interesting task as you will get a company. You can be friends with other couples over there or with local people. This will add more to your memories and you might get to explore some new things and places.
- Unplug a little
You may be having so many pictures and experiences to share or you may want to let your family know that you are safe and fine. But do not indulge yourself too much into it. Unplug a little from people. You can share your stories and pictures later as well.
